Chapter 2470: Chapter 2470: The Key to Unlocking the Yu Family Graveyard (Part 2)
"Mr. Bai, we’ve arrived."
The car came to a steady stop in front of the residential area. The assistant turned around and respectfully reminded Bai Zheng, who was lost in thought.
Bai Zheng lifted his head and looked at the familiar yet unfamiliar neighborhood in front of him. His eyes flickered as he pushed open the car door and stepped out.
This place was once the "home" he had prepared for the three of them, but in the end, he never had the chance to stay here for even a day.
"Sir, I’m sorry, but entering the residential area requires ID card verification. You... Mr. Yu!" The security guard at the entrance widened his eyes in astonishment. After three years, seeing Yu Xiuzhun again left a deep impression on him!
No one else had ever handed him the keys like a final farewell.
For these three years, the security guard had watched Ye Mingmei live alone with her daughter and was deeply impressed by the adorable and well-behaved Meimei. Now, seeing Yu Xiuzhun again, he was too shocked to say anything.
"It seems I’m lucky today to meet an acquaintance, otherwise I wouldn’t be able to get in. I go by Bai Zheng now, but I should still be the owner of this property. Is identity verification necessary?"
Bai Zheng raised an eyebrow, responding indifferently yet courteously.
It’s been three years. He had been away for too long, and too many people wanted to eradicate him. It was only in such ordinary security guards that he could still see a hint of joy and excitement.
He wasn’t dead, and it turned out that it wasn’t just Ye Mingmei and Meimei who would be happy.
"Mr. Yu, no need, of course not. I remember you. I’ve taken care of everything you instructed. Your daughter is very cute and well-behaved." The middle-aged security guard waved his hand heartily and laughed brightly.
"However, you’re back at an inconvenient time. Miss Ye seems to have taken Meimei back to her maternal home today. They’re not here today."
"I hope you can keep my visit today a secret." Bai Zheng’s eyes flickered as he looked deeply at the security guard.
The security guard was taken aback, then nodded, "Okay, I won’t tell anyone."
"Thank you." Bai Zheng’s thin lips moved slightly. It was rare to hear two words naturally coming from his mouth.
Nodding politely to the security guard, he then stepped inside.
The security guard was left in shock, staring at his back, unable to snap back to reality.
He was once a mythical figure. The fact that someone of their low status could even speak with him was a miracle. He never imagined that one day, Mr. Yu would actually say thank you to him!
The security guard raised his hand and pinched his face hard. It hurt, so it wasn’t a dream!
"Mr. Bai, won’t that security guard spill the beans? If the news leaks, you might be in danger," the assistant asked worriedly, following behind Bai Zheng.
Bai Zheng stepped into the elevator, pressed the floor button, and responded leisurely, "He won’t."
There are people who must live by deceit and trickery, like them.
But there are people who might have the most ordinary jobs, yet their inner hearts are anything but ordinary. They possess the rarest simplicity and kindness in this world.
"Ding——"
The elevator arrived, and Bai Zheng collected his gaze, stepped out, and walked towards the familiar apartment number.
He saw a child’s drawing posted on the door. The cartoon depiction of a family of three painfully pierced his eyes.
"Mr. Bai, the original keys have been changed. This is a custom-made security lock, without the key it simply cannot be opened. Getting in quietly is impossible."
